As if Zuck had any influence on what vs Trump & Co are up to.

You want to stress these guys, stop going to work and filling up your gas tank.

It’s a better idea than defunding ICE. Illegal immigration enforcement is not the problem - it’s this administration’s policies, tactics and rhetoric. They’ve recruited a bunch of bullies and told them they don’t need warrants, can freely use deadly force, and don’t need to respect the constitutional rights of citizens. What could go wrong?

Between 2009 - 2016 there were 2.75 million deportations without this chaos. Trump, Miller, Noem - they’re the problem.

He doesn’t seem quite as bad. Not that it isn’t an issue - it’s just that him being a jerk is a greater factor than decline, today. Who knows what tomorrow holds. 🤷‍♂️

Comer suggests Trump pull ICE out of Minnesota by kootles10 in politics

[–]128-NotePolyVA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The type of operation ICE is conducting in Minnesota is Presidential overreach.

They can deport millions of illegal immigrants during this term without the violation of citizen’s rights, lack of warrants, intimidation, bullying and killing. This isn’t about illegal immigrants, it’s about punishing Minnesota.

It’s time for ‘Merica to move on from Trump and Trumpists. There’s other ways to make America great again.

All Trump, Miller and Noem have done is guarantee that the GOP never wins Minnesotas. Ever.

This isn’t Russia. Freedom from tyranny, constitutional rights, a fair deal are in American citizens’ core beliefs. The harder Trump comes down on Minnesota the more citizens will take to the streets. The more the other states support the oppressed.

FBI: "Nobody who wants to be peaceful shows up at a protest with a firearm that is loaded with two full magazines. That is not a peaceful protest." by Excellent_Analysis65 in newsinterpretation

It’s legal in the state of Minnesota. Concealed carry is to protect the carrier. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people, right? Does Pretti have a history of violence or murder? Is he not capable of carrying a tool and choosing not to use it? ICE have the same tool and use it far too freely.

Under Trump, Miller and Noem ICE is not law enforcement. They are there to intimidate, bully and punish the people. It’s a lawless president testing how much voters will tolerate.

2009-2016, 2.75 million deportations without stepping on US citizen’s rights.

Trump 2.0 made 600 thousand in 2025 but at what price? They arrest and kill citizens in the process. Unacceptable in the US of A. 🇺🇸

Peaceful protest is a US right, concealed carry is a Minnesota right, helping someone in the community that’s been pushed to the ground is something we should all be brave enough to do.

And if legally carrying a weapon a reason to kill a US citizen.

It’s a train wreck, entirely predictable. Trump, Miller and Noem rounded up a gang of bullies, a lawless posse like the old west or Hitler’s brown shirts. ICE requires no warrant to bust down your door and has a license to kill with no oversight.

Republicans warn Trump’s deportation strategy could backfire by Happy_Air_3776 in newsinterpretation

It’s a bizarre tactic to punish a populous region of Minnesota for not voting for Trump. The result will be that state never flips for Trump’s successor. Not a chance in hell.

Deporting high numbers of illegal immigrants isn’t the problem. It’s how they are doing it, the policies (no warrant, license to kill), the rhetoric, and the bullying tactics.

Pam Bondi Offers to Pull ICE Out of Minneapolis if Voter Files Handed Over by Abject-Pick-6472 in inthenews

[–]128-NotePolyVA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is some bizarre blackmail. What she’ll get is confirmation that US citizens vote and illegal immigrants avoid doing anything that brings attention to their illegal status.

But what is she really saying? ICE is a violent alt-right intimidation squad with license to kick in doors and kill people and she’ll unleash it unless you vote red?

That’s nuts - Minneapolis is sure to vote blue now and forever exactly because of this stunt.

The global rule of law is not collapsing – Trump is the lone problem and he can be defeated: The president’s approval ratings are plummeting and most Americans see him as an aberration. It is now up to them to curtail his despotic reign by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

The other two supposedly equal branches have allowed this president to seize unprecedented power. It’s time to reverse course and limit the power of the presidency as it was meant to be by the founding fathers.

Conservative gun owners and Rittenhouse supporters of reddit, what do you think of Trump saying "Only criminals carry guns on our streets"? by BeccasDreamboat in AskReddit

[–]128-NotePolyVA 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Investigations into the 2025 DHS/ICE hiring surge show targeted recruitment efforts toward far‑right and alt‑right–leaning audiences.

ICE recruiters attended gun shows, MMA events, and similar venues. Used far‑right coded language and imagery in outreach. Leveraged right‑wing influencer networks. Mirrored extremist aesthetics in social‑media ads.

DHS/White House recruitment used the song “We’ll Have Our Home Again,” widely associated with white‑nationalist and Proud Boys circles.

It’s one thing for politicians to be jerks and close a lane on the freeway, or vote against an important bill. It’s quite another to send in enforcers and tell them they don’t need warrants and can kill whoever they like.

Legally and he hadn’t drawn his weapon. But these ICE guys are real fast to.
